by Susan Clinton and Erica Meloe
Welcome to Tough to Treat: A Physiotherapists’ Guide to Managing Those Complex Patients, with your hosts Erica Meloe and Susan Clinton, who discuss how they successfully treated patients that others could not. Via case history discussion, they share their physical therapy expertise from treating long standing pelvic pain to persistent neck pain. They present a holistic and integrative view on assessing and treating chronic pain. Unique movement strategies and specific patient exercise prescription are also presented so you can be ahead of the curve when it comes to treating these types of patients. Oftentimes, the source of the problem is not where you think it is!! For example, chronic low back pain emanating from the neck. Or hip pain coming from the foot. It pays to look up and down the kinetic chain!

<p dir="ltr">In this episode, we explore the surprising journey of a boxer battling chronic shoulder pain that left him struggling to do even the most basic workout. Despite focusing on his shoulder, it turns out the root of his problem lay elsewhere—his elbow. Is that surprising? It was in his injury history. Do not discount the power of an old injury that could come back and haunt you. And think about the load on the elbow when you're doing a push or pull-up. Join us as we clinically reason through this interesting case from start to finish.</p> <p dir="ltr"> </p> <p dir="ltr">A glance at this episode:</p> <ul> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">[0:01] Introduction and Patient Background</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">[7:03] Initial Assessment and Observations</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">[11:56] Exploring the Root Causes</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">[14:12] Addressing the Pull-Up Challenge</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">[32:06] Implementing Exercise Program</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">[36:32] Final Thoughts and Key Takeaways</p> </li> </ul> <p dir="ltr"> </p> <p dir="ltr">Related links:</p> <ul> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation"><a href= "http://www.toughtotreat.com/">Tough To Treat Website</a></p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation"><a href= "https://www.ericameloe.com/decodingcomplexpatient">Erica’s Course: Decoding the Complex Patient</a></p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation"><a href= "http://www.subkit.com/susan">Susan’s Pelvic Health Education Subscription</a></p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation"><a href= "https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jtKBV_Io-LejCZIeSpUVt2WZMPZ-hdjYp8tfiyq7DSk/edit?usp=sharing"> Access the Transcript</a></p> </li> </ul> <p> </p>
